Well I made it – this is my last day of working at Amazon.

I have actually still got a week to go to the end of the assignment but, after taking a while to think about it, decided to take advantage of the offer to use my unused holiday balance.

Yes, I did have to think about it. I was tempted to work the last week, the extra money has come in quite useful and I felt slightly guilty not getting as much as I could. But, on the other hand, Amazon didn’t need me as the the peak period was over and the thought of not having to get up at 5.10 in the morning for another week was so enticing.
